Nine months after Adam Scott had the Open Championship snatched from his
grasp, he came through last night to claim the Masters title in the most
dramatic of circumstances, beating Ángel Cabrera at the second hole of a
sudden-death play-off.

With a putt of around 12 feet at the 10th, Scott, 32, claimed the first win
for an Australian at Augusta National in 73 years of trying. It was
heart-stopping stuff, particularly as Cabrera’s own putt had hovered on the
edge of the hole and refused to drop.
